Conservative Management

What is Conservative Management?

A protocol to reduce trauma to anal mucosa and piles. Includes fibre titration, hydration target, timed toilet routine, avoidance of prolonged straining, warm sitz bath technique, activity guidance, and short-term topical care when indicated. It aims to ease pain, bleeding tendency and fissure spasm, while identifying cases that need procedural care.

OUR PROCESS

Common Doubts, Answered Privately

Warm sitz bath helps relax internal sphincter spasm and supports hygiene. It is supportive, not a standalone cure. Healing depends on avoiding hard stools and persistent trauma.

How much fibre is needed?

If bleeding persists, prolapse increases, pain remains >2-3 weeks despite adherence, or examination shows higher grade, we discuss Kshara Karma, Kshara Sutra, laser or surgical options with pros/cons.

We know this is personal. Here are questions patients ask before booking. Still unsure? Your private consultation covers everything.

We titrate gradually – often 25-30g soluble + insoluble mix from food plus supplement if needed. Too rapid increase may cause bloating. Your chart is personalised after assessment.
